Part 1 - INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1 - GENERAL
This hood is constructed ready for installation in the bottom part of an overhead unit fixed above a
cooker and fastened to a wall.
It can be used either in the ducting version (evacuation of air to the outside) or in the filter version
(internal recirculation of air).
2 - SAFETY WARNINGS
2.1- When used in the extraction mode the cooker hood ducting must not be connected to
a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances supplied with energy other
than electric such as a central heating flue or water heating flue.
2.2- Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds with
the voltage on the rating plate inside the hood.
2.3- Connect the cooker hood to the mains via a double pole switch which has 3 mm
clearance between the contacts.
2.4- The appliance must be earthed.
2.5- When installed, the hood must be positioned at least 65 cm above a cooking
appliance.
2.6- Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
2.7- Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fats and oils may catch
fire.
2.8- Before carring out any kind of maintenance or cleaning, disconnect the hood from
the mains supply.
2.9- If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel burning appliance
such as a central heating boiler then this must be of the room sealed or balanced flue
type. If other types of flue or appliance are fitted ensure that there is an adequate
supply of air into the room. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with other
appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room
must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the
cooker hood.
3 - INSTALLATION
This device belongs to the category of semi-fitted hoods.
The top part (height 13 cm) is inserted into the overhead unit.
The bottom carriage, which can be extracted, remains outside the overhead unit when assembled,
and must be pulled out into the working position.
This hood can be installed in two different ways.
3.1 - Installation using screws (without quick-connection clips)
To fix the top part of the hood to the inside of the overhead unit, the base of the unit must be at a
distance of 13 cm from the lower edge.
4
If the base is pre-drilled and suitable to take the hood, it will be sufficient to screw the hood onto it
using the four 4.2 x 44.5 mm screws provided.
If the base is not pre-drilled the hood must be correctly positioned and screwed into place from the
inside outward, using 3.5 x 16 mm screws.
3.2 - Installation using quick-connection clips
On request, and upon payment of an additional charge, the hood can be supplied complete with a
spring-clip quick-connection system equipped with squares, fitted to the
top of the hood body. If the hood is fitted with this system, a normal overhead unit with its base in
the usual position can be used.
Installation is performed as follows:
measure the base of the overhead unit carefully to mark the opening required. The size of the
opening for a hood measuring 600 mm are 535x258 mm (for a 90 cm hood they are 835x258 mm)
and it is necessary to allow 15mm from the front edge of the overhead unit (front part without front
panel).
Once this opening has been cut, merely insert the hood. The springs and relative squares will hook
the hood behind the base. When the screws are tightened, the hood is fixed into place. The holds
for screws can be accessed by pulling the carriage out into the working position. They are situated
on the side walls (fixed part of bottom panel).
To dismantle the hood, turn the screws in an anti-clockwise direction until they lock. In this position
the springs are bent inwards and the hood can easily be removed from the opening.
Caution: before removing the hood, make sure you have disconnected it from the power supply.
3.3 - Ducting or recirculation fitting
1 - Ducting fitting
a - The hood must be ducted to the outside using either a rigid or a flexible pipe Ø 100 or 120
mm., which must be fixed using suitable pipe clamps (not provided).
b - Check whether or not the activated charcoal filters have been fitted inside the hood: in the
ducting version these filters must not be fitted.
2 - Recirculation fitting
a - The hood must be connected to the top of the overhead unit using either a rigid or a flexible
pipe Ø 100 or 120 mm.
b - Check that the activated charcoal filters have been fitted inside the hood.
c - The filtered air is recirculated into the kitchen through the hold in the top of the overhead
unit.
d - If a pipe Ø 120 mm. is used, a directional grille (provided) can be fitted over the overhead
unit, taking care that the flow of air is directed forwards.
Front panel
The front panel can be changed to blend in with adjacent kitchen units. To do this, first remove the
glass or metal strip. The screws are positioned behind the strip, and can be removed with ease.
Repeat the above operations in reverse order to fit a wooden front panel that blends in with the other
kitchen units.
3.4 - Electrical connection and working test
Electrical connection can be provided as follows:
1 - If the hood has a plug, it can be connected directly to the nearest earthed power socket.
5
2 - If the hood does not have a plug, it can be connected by means of a special earthed
connection. Always comply with the warnings given in points 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 of the safety
instructions.
3 - Once the electrical connection has been completed, check that the worktop illumination, motor
and speeds work properly. When opening the sliding carriage for the first time after installing the
hood, pull the carriage quite hard until it reaches the end of the guide.
Part 2 - OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1 - OPERATION
The controls are located in a concealed control panel in the top of the extractable carriage, and are
visible in the working position (carriage open).
The hood functions are worked by three sliding controls:
L button = turns the lighting system on and off
M button= turns the motor on and off
V button = 1 : minimum speed
2 : medium speed
3 : maximum speed
Also, two microswitches work as main power switches with memory, and are turned on and off by
opening and closing of the carriage, activating the lighting system and motor.
2 - MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance and cleaning will ensure good performance and reliability, while extending the
working life of the hood. Special attention should be paid to the grease filters and to the activated
charcoal filters when the hood is used in the recirculation mode.
2.1 - Metal grease filters.
1 - Cleaning
This filter should be cleaned at the most every two months, using a normal household detergent;
its reduced size means that it can also be put into the dishwasher.
2 - Removing the filter
Open the sliding carriage, then push the side handles on the filter towards the centre, at the same
time pulling downward. Replace the filter taking care that the handle is pointing towards the
front of the hood.
2.2 - Synthetic grease filter
1 - This cannot be washed, but must be replaced on average every two months.
If the filter has chemical saturation indicators, replace when the red colour in the dots has spread
to the whole surface of the filter.
2 - Replacement:
a - Open the ducting grille panel
b - Press the fastener clips towards the centre, simultaneously pulling downwards.
6
c - Remove the wire filter holder and replace the grease filter
d - Replace the ducting grille panel.
CAUTION: always comply with the cleaning and maintenance times given above, to prevent any
risk of fire due to filters that are saturated with grease.
2.3 - Activated charcoal filter
1 - Function
The activated charcoal filters absorb smells and odours until they reach saturation point. They
cannot be washed or regenerated, and must be replaced at least every 4 months, or more
frequently in case of particularly heavy use.
2 - Replacement:
a - Open the ducting grille panel or remove the grease filter
b - Replace the activated charcoal filters by turning the thumb screws in an anticlockwise
direction to remove, and in a clockwise direction to replace.
c - Close the ducting grille again, or replace the grease filter
2.4 - Worktop illumination
a - This is provided by two 40 W lamps, which can be accessed by removing the transparent cover
b - If the lamps are not working, check that they are screwed in properly.
c - If the lamps have fused they must be replaced using others of the same voltage and power.
2.5 - Cleaning
The hood must be cleaned internally and externally using a damp cloth and mild liquid detergent.
Under no circumstances use abrasive substances.
